A sister is your guardian angel if she's older,
and your constant shadow if she's younger.
She's your best friend in all your endevours.
Your confidant, protector of your heart,
...
All these years I've spent without you
physically in my life, but you clearly are
an inspiration. Lately I've tried to be
what you were and what your spirit still
...
Too many years have gone by since I've seen
your face. Too many tears have been cried since
your day of grace.
...
Every day I hope to be the best
version that God wants me to be.
I put on my smiles and hide my frowns,
hoping the devil isn't lurking around.
...
Love without limits someone once said.
Now a staple in a person's mind flow from
head to heart.
...
It's pulling it together when the walls collapse
in on you. Finding something deep within to
push you through the day.
...
Framed perfectly in my mind is the
picture I want for my life. Unfortunately
it does not come with changes or
retakes; you can't delet or crop it.
...
I almost didn't hear
your laugh, I almost had
to cry all night, and
you almost left
...
Left behind, scared, now where to go. This is
what it feels like when you're alone. Unaware of
those around you who once made you happy;
nothing can seem to make you happy.
...
Broken, misused, abandonded, betrayed.
Suffering due to everyone going away.
Left behind, left alone, scared of the world with
...
Let me be, watch me grow. How will
I learn if I don't make mistakes, take
care of my own.
...
After the time gone by I still see your
face in thought, dream, or picture. I still
wonder if there were ever real feelings
on your part, and I still wonder if it was
...
Coming undone, unshackled, let loose,
becoming ruthless. No longer holding in
feelings, but bursting them onto a blank canvas.
...
Has it been this long since you've gone
away? Five years since that tearful,
drearful, emotionfilled day? I think of
those days gone by of games we played
...
All my life I've been criticized about
my body. These past five years it has
been myself doing the criticizing. Never
have I seen myself as pretty, not even
...
I need to get away form here,
away from this craziness. I need
to get away from all this stess,
nonsense, and beginning waves
...
Everytime I see your face whether in
person or in thought, I feel the need to
smile. You bring joy to my heart, a
beam of sunlight to my face, and
...
Remarkable times together,
wonderful conversations spoken,
and your face lingering in my
mind are what make those memories devine.
...
I'm wishing that this day would
have never come, the day, today,
that you went away.

A Sister Is.....
A sister is your guardian angel if she's older,
and your constant shadow if she's younger.
She's your best friend in all your endevours.
Your confidant, protector of your heart,
and secret keeper. A sister can also be
your enemy; your best adversary at times
of fighting.
She keeps all of your secrets, even the tough
ones. She's the one to tell you constantly
how pretty you are, partly because you look
similar in some ways. Your sister is the one
to call when that one boy talks to you; especially
when he decides to break your heart.
Also she's the first one vowing to beat him up
if he breaks your heart.
Your sister is your mother at a younger age
and you are hers. Not only is she your savior
shall anything happen to you, she also knows
what to do to make you feel better and wipe
away the tears. A sister is your only friend
when all others have walked out, especially
when you need a friend the most. This is
the person you shared your bedroom, and
at any time when your body changes, the one
whom you share clothes with.
She knows what makes you laugh, cry, and
most times is the one to make you laugh
and cry. She gives you a firm grasp of life
and tells you how hard love is so you don't go
in blind. She has the qualities of an angel and
will never leave your side. She's the one who
understands every personal event life throws
at you, for she lost the same loved one you did.
To me a sister is all of these qualities rolled into
two. For I am the lucky one to have two big
sisters like you.
Hi Tessa, you have some good poetic ideas reflecting the emotions and concerns of a young woman your age. Keep writing, more good stuff will come. Phil
